Prozac was too numbing and Zoloft was great for a week or so (especially in social anxiety, self possession, and task completion at lower doses..before making me very irritable and detatched. At higher doses it I lost interest in most of my hobbies. I tried several times hoping it would be better.

I'm trying to taper off lamictal because it tends to have wonky effects when mixed with SSRIs.(sometimes good, some bad) but I can't get below 100 mgs without losing serious functioning. It would be awesome if losing the lamictal would make zoloft tolerable. Lamictal definitely made me a little overactivated, bordering on manic with the Celexa.

I've read that with Effexor you're either at the therapeutic dose or nothing, and there's no in-between...and that sweating and sex drive are the price paid at therapeutic dose.
